  1. Boilers good it's got a ten year warranty on it and serviced every year, anything wrong with it is an easy fix not like the piece of shit i had before it. Its the heating system i'm worried about, it's at least 25 years old and a lot is buried under floors that will be difficult to get at. There's a few places i can see evidence of leaks where the copper has gone green below compression joints but are dry. My thoughts are whats leaking is so small it's evaporating so i can't see it, i think its got to leak a lot worse before i find it. I did find a leaking hot water pipe while looking for the problem it was wet around the compression nut but dried out as it ran down the pipe that was an easy fix just quarter of a turn with a spanner sorted it.
  2. Please tell me i need all the help i can get
  3. Off work today as i had to visit the dentist this morning for a checkup, or should i say so they could take money off me for the sake of it. I've had a productive day so far, i weighed in some scrap, fitted a steering wheel control interface in the marmite wagon so i can use the buttons i thought i could live without on the steering wheel, took the boy to his training course and just changed the flush valve on the upstairs toilet which has been driving me mad these last few weeks, i originally thought it was the fill valve so i changed that and it was still dripping, the drip, drip, drip, in the nights was driving me insane, so this week I've been turning the water off to it every night to stop the drip, which then led me to the real problem. After turning the water off overnight i found the tank was empty in the morning the flush valve seal was leaking slightly and when the level dropped in the tank the fill valve opened causing the drip, fuck me i can see why the chinks used water torture in the past. Now all i have to do is find the bloody leak on the central heating system, i haven't topped it up since fitting the new boiler about 8 years ago but this last week i have to top up the central heating system daily and i have no idea where its going can't find any wet patches anywhere.
  4. Looks like something homer Simpson has drawn LOL
  5. I think @Six30's brother nicked your scoot @boboneleg https://www.facebook.com/share/r/14hYecsdFp/
  6. I thought that at first as it was in the cold outside bit of the garage but the last time it died it was in the warm inside bit and has been since, i shall have to kick it out in the cold to see if it does it again.
  7. Well i left the battery disconnected for a week the voltage was 13.23v at the start of the week and it was 13.23 at the end so reconnected the battery and after 2 weeks the voltage is 13.20v so not sure what is going on with it.
  8. How is it only now i have discovered this little arrow that takes you straight to the quoted post. god knows how much of my life i have wasted scrolling back through the threads
  9. Is that top inlet cam a tooth out or is it the angle the photo's taken from.
  10. Don't you have trace heating on your outdoor water supplies there. I put some on the condense pipe from my central heating boiler a few years ago after it froze and backed up into the house . Our winter temperature's get nowhere near as low as what you have i thought it would be a must there.
  11. Wash your helmet i didn't know this was a thing i just let the new sweat purify the old sweat. Mud and dirt on the outside is classed as camouflage who wouldn't want that
  12. Why am i getting the impression this post is the result of your wife tapping you on the shoulder after your last post LOL
